Liner Notes

Recorded during the same tour that produced the *Live Rust* concert film, this is the studio document of Young at a genuine crossroads, answering punk's challenge on his own terms without abandoning the acoustic intimacy he'd carried since his Buffalo Springfield days. "Hey Hey, My My" and its acoustic mirror image "My My, Hey Hey" remain among the most quoted lyrics in rock, later immortalized in Kurt Cobain's final note.

Never one to follow protocol, Neil's 1979 album featured new songs recorded live during his '78 tour with Crazy Horse. The now legendary record (with a title inspired by Devo and a sound invigorated by the punk movement), was originally split into separate acoustic and electric sides, and possibly best exemplifies two very different sides of Young. Includes Thrasher; Powderfinger; Hey Hey, My My (into the Black), and more.
